It's not so much the 4 chair itch as the 2 chair with a roof itch - give me a G.... Give me a T... I'm sure Rob has linked to the rude boy Spyder before but there are too many pages to check now! IIRC it was mechanically unfettled?
Are Spyders Becoming Extinct At OPCs!

You'll be wanting to see how this transfers to the road then[
] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z8TakwDPrRI I like my Boxster hardcore, but if I do go for the 'legend' I want 4 chairs and comfort. Well, I haven't driven either. Will at some point, but just found this. They really can't be compared can they? http://blogs.edmunds.com/karl/2010/04/face-off-porsche-911-gt3-vs-porsche-911-turbo.html
Excellent videos there flat6 nice find indeed I have discovered from some quick research around the "Used Car Locators" for Euroland and USA the OPC in the UK seem to be the bargain basement prices currently compared to the rest! Makes a change from the usual R.I.P. Off Britain pricing we normally find [&o] [link=http://www.porsche.com/]http://www.porsche.com/[/link]
Preparin it now preparing nowORIGINAL: flat6Wow!! I see what you mean! Just across the way in France there's one for €69.800!! Well spotted. Do you think the desirability in the UK will catch up? I take it you've readied your car to come on track with us next time[

In lieu of OEM sports exhaust? Will it go faster? Looks nice and clean under there!
Good finds flat6. I've driven a 997 GT3RS - on the low friction circuit at the PEC Silverstone. Just sitting in it, starting it up, pressing the manly clutch and putting it in first gear is enough to create WANT. My Spyder has never been the same since but I'm getting over it slowly...
Phew, for a moment I thought your car was being modded! I mean, we'd have been polite to you and all that but a non OEM Spyder could lead to flat6 giving you your marching orders from the thread []

Fortunately for my wallet I am a stickler for originality at all times but especially with a limited edition potential future classic collectors car [8|] Nice to see the car being taken to its full potential with the claimed 350bhp [8D]ORIGINAL: rob.kellock Phew, for a moment I thought your car was being modded!

Karma in the Spyder universe has been restored []
]Ah OK. Did you drive it on the handling circuit as well? If I can bring myself to spend the money I should go and do this one at PEC. http://www.porsche.com/silverstone/en/experience/porschedrivingexperience/evolutionrs/ But then as you say, i'll be wanting that power when back in the Spyder [X(]
It's not the power, it's the engine, the package... Trust me, avoid them like the plague if you want to keep enjoying your Spyder!
Spydermen as much as you may aspire to owning the GT3 come a beautiful warm sunny day which set of keys would you rather pick up [8D] A dilemma for one ex GT3 RS owner who happily traded power and race pedigree to become the first customer Spyder ever delivered back in early 2010 and only recently sold this summer [8D] From Post 313 [] [link=http://www.porscheclubgbforum.com/showProfile.asp?memid=975]Andrew Killington[/link] Hi Cecil and all 'twas me who went from Spyder to Spider. IMHO the Spyder is THE complete sports car package, a fantastic achievement. The 430 of course has its own charm, namely the engine and the noise and IMO has very forgiving neutral handling with a crisp turn-in and little understeer. The F1 although getting on in years is a gearbox well suited to the car and has converted me to that technology. Unlike the Spyder the 430 has more shake (not bad) but wasn't designed as a roadster unlike the Spyder. I was able to scratch the F car itch and am pleased to have done so. For me it says a lot that I traded a Gt3 RS for a boxster and with the Spyder you do IMO get a genuine pure exhilRTing sports car experience. Regards to all

Spot on to recall AK's experience. Also, remember this old one from page 1.
